DoseMeRx vs UpToDate Lexidrug

Lexidrug, formerly Lexicomp, comes from Wolters Kluwer with interaction analysis, Trissel's IV compatibility, dosing guidance by renal and hepatic impairment, obesity, pediatric and neonatal use, toxicology and an offline mobile app. Wolters Kluwer sells it under the UpToDate brand. Enterprise buyers use a contact form, and personal subscriptions are sold through Wolters Kluwer's online store.

DoseMeRx covers dose individualization from measured concentrations, with 24/7 support and a staged set-up journey, and the vendor says it is the only HITRUST CSF certified Bayesian dosing platform.

A hospital pharmacy that needs a reference for interactions, IV compatibility and renal and hepatic dosing buys Lexidrug. For a pharmacy that needs Bayesian vancomycin AUC dosing from patient levels and is looking at Lexidrug, Lexidrug loses, since its page lists dosing by patient group and DoseMeRx states concentration-based individualization.
